4 years already?


Sydney's just celebrated her 4th birthday! I can't believe 4 years has gone by so quickly. She is at a really great age. She is independent enough to get herself dressed, potty training is long over, she can tell us what she needs, and she is still young enough to wear pig tails, play dress up and snuggle with Mommy and Daddy.

On Friday she had a Valentine's Day party at school. The next day our friends came over to celebrate Sydney's birthday and her friends Courtney and Ethan's birthdays (they are all just a few days apart). On Sunday, we gave Sydney her presents from us. When she went back to school on Tuesday (we had a three day weekend) we had a birthday party with her school friends. That was a lot of cake!

When I went in for her school party, I dropped Halas off at his class room for a while. We are going to try to ease him (ok...really it's me) into going to daycare. He was having a pretty grumpy day but once they gave him a bottle he was good to go. The boy likes to eat. In his room there can be a total of 6 babies at one time with 2 teachers. However, usually there have only been 3 - 4 babies in there at one time. That is because the waiting list has been so long that a lot of people are paying for their slot before their baby is ready to actually use it. Some people have been getting on the waiting list before they even get pregnant. Sydney was one year old before we were able to secure a spot for her in this daycare and I got on the waiting list as soon as I found out I was pregnant. We are really lucky because siblings have higher priority on the waiting list and we are only paying for Halas' slot for a few weeks before he goes into daycare.
